Step 1
Shot. Osso buco: weighed ingredients beside the heating pan. Natural window light, ivory linen, handmade ceramic, no text, no logo. Show the action, then a jump cut through the wait. Do not film the full Heat 5 min in real time.
Voiceover. Set out a scale and the equipment for Osso buco. Heat to 325°F / 163°C in the oven, or a quiet simmer on the stove and give it 5 minutes so the surface is actually hot. Weigh beef sirloin, low-sodium chicken broth, canned crushed tomato, carrot, celery, yellow onion, lemon zest, flat-leaf parsley, low-sodium beef broth, kosher salt, olive oil. Osso buco is cooked in Milan as its own plate, not as a copy of a restaurant menu. Brown the beef, braise it in wine and tomato with soffritto until it is spoon-tender, and finish with lemon zest and parsley. Amounts are for 4 from foods this library can count.

Scene 12 · mistakes · 7s
If it goes wrong
Shot. Split screen is unnecessary. Show the finished, correct texture, then a hand points at the cue.
Voiceover. Osso buco looks done at the edge and is still raw in the center. Trust the cue, not the color. Check the thickest piece and give it a few more minutes. Osso buco turned out salty, dry, or watery. Weigh the salt and the liquid next time. Keep the heat at the temperature in the method, and stop when the doneness cue appears.

Machine-readable script for a later video tool. Scene durations are edit lengths, not cooking times. Long simmers and bakes are jump cuts. Order: hook, title, mise, equipment, one scene per numbered step (shot, on-screen text, voiceover, duration), doneness, fixes, storage, nutrition, plate, and the closing CTA. Keep the shot list and on-screen facts tied to this recipe.
